Is this a VHD reaction? Empty Is this a VHD reaction?

Post by SarahJane Tue Aug 10, 2010 12:29 pm

Pebbles had her vaccine last night and shes never had a reaction or anything but when we got home she had some blood on her fur, i assumed it was just where the needle had come out and maybe pricked her a bit, but this morning all skin around her neck is bright red, and the fur seems to be thinner like some has fell out but im not sure because the fur is thinner around the neck anyway on her.

Is there anything i can do? It doesnt seem "bad" compared to some ive seen, I have some aloe vera pure from when peanut had sore hocks, still have a massive tub so i wondered if i could use some on it?

What kind of VHD jab was it? I know that the Cylap jab has had its leaflet altered to state that up to 50% of rabbits might show a reaction. You need to let your vet know about this as if there is any treatment needed because of the reaction, the cost should be picked up by the vaccine company.

I phoned the vets and they gave me an appointment but nobody was back in time to take me there, so they said to keep a close eye and see how it is tomorrow.
It has gone a bit further down and shes lost more fur Sad

Shes eating fine though, but domino is grooming it ALOT, he wont stop which i expect is making it worse.
